Answer:
I am speaking to you from the Cabinet Room at 10 Downing Street. This
morning the British Ambassador in Berlin handed the German government
a final note stating that, unless we heard from them by 11 o’clock that they
were prepared at once to withdraw their troops from Poland, a state of war
would exist between us. I have to tell you now that no such undertaking has
been received, and that consequently this country is at war with Germany
